Gurudwara Membership Bogus: Judge
The British Columbia Supreme Court has cancelled proposed November elections at the
Ross Street Gurdwara and has cancelled all temple memberships issued since the last election two years ago.
The oral decision by Justice Paul Walker was given earlier this week following an action launched by
Sikh Youth Vancouver, which claimed the registration process by which members are allowed to vote was neither fair nor transparent.
Members of Sikh Youth Vancouver complained that they were unable to obtain registration forms for their supporters.
The Sikh temple -- the largest gurdwara outside India -- is controlled by members of the
Khalsa Diwan Society.
Walker asked both sides to return to the court once they had agreed on an independent returning officer who would oversee registrations and the election itself.
